The Object of My Affection
The Welling of Tears, the Outpour of Anger

What speaks to your heart,
Love, hate, freedom, oppression?
What brings a light to your eyes,
A kiss, a heavenly sensation?

What makes you forget everything,
A disaster, a rescue, a significant other?
What hides down deep in your heart,
Joy, fear, sympathy, greed?

What makes you smile from ear to ear,
A song, a hymn, a candle smelling sweet?
What comes flowing from your mouth,
A laugh, a curse, a prayer?
